I am very happy that this bug is fixed now but we have to explain it to our customers why they can't mount their Linux partitions on the RDB disk anymore. Booting is of course also affected. (Mounting the root partition)

But maybe simple GParted instructions are a good solution.
You can apply the patch. I will revert this patch until I find a simple solution for our community.

Thank you for fixing this issue!
Thanks for testing - I'll add your Tested-by: tag now. I have to
correct the Fixes: tag anyway.

Jens - is the bugfix patch enough, or do you need a new version of the
entire series?
Well, the whole series is already upstream, so that part is set in
That's what I thought, but thought to better ask...
stone. What I'm unclear on is if the final fix is the parent of this
thread, or if there's later version burried somewhere within this big
thread?

It's the parent of this thread (Message ID <20230701023524.7434-1-schmitzmic@xxxxxxxxx>) but I'd botched up the Fixes: tag; might also need to reword the commit message to clearly explain the ramifications of commit b6f3f28f60 as regards partitions at the end of the disk that were subject to size overflow and truncation in previous kernels.

I'll send v2 of the bugfix shortly, OK?

Cheers,
